Spots are customizable tools designed to help you track various activities, routines, and events in your life with ease. Here's how you can use each type of Spot:
1. Routine Spot
Purpose: To track activities that have a clear start and stop time.
How to Use: Set up a Routine Spot for activities like working out, studying, or practicing an instrument. Before you begin, the Spot can prompt you to set a goal for the session (e.g., "Run 5 miles" or "Study for 2 hours"). When you finish, record what you actually accomplished. This helps you monitor your progress, stay motivated, and achieve your goals over time.
Example: You're starting a workout session. You tap the Routine Spot, set your goal for the workout, and start the timer. When you're done, you stop the timer and log your results.
2. Marker Spot
Purpose: To quickly record one-time events with a single tap.
How to Use: Use the Marker Spot to log events that happen spontaneously or irregularly. For instance, if you have a baby and want to record each feeding along with how much they ate, simply tap the Spot and enter the details. It's a fast and effortless way to keep track of important moments.
Example: You feed your baby and want to note the time and amount. Tap the Marker Spot and input the feeding details.
3. Medicine Spot
Purpose: To track medication intake or health-related events.
How to Use: The Medicine Spot is similar to the Marker Spot but tailored for health purposes. Use it to log when you take your medicine or when someone is feeling unwell. It's ideal for managing medication schedules, tracking symptoms like fevers, or monitoring health conditions.
Example: You take your prescribed medication. Tap the Medicine Spot to record the dosage and time, ensuring you stay on track with your regimen.
4. Daily Drive Spot
Purpose: To check traffic conditions on your regular routes.
How to Use: Set up a Daily Drive Spot for your routine trips to work, school, or any frequent destination. Input the address and your usual departure time, and the Spot will help you check real-time traffic to ensure you take the fastest route.
Example: Before leaving for work, you tap the Daily Drive Spot. It provides you with the best route considering current traffic, helping you avoid delays.
5. Bedtime Spot
Purpose: To prepare your phone for sleep and support your bedtime routine.
How to Use: Use the Bedtime Spot to get your phone ready for the night by silencing notifications, dimming the screen, or activating a sleep mode. It can also prompt you to reflect on your day, set goals for tomorrow, and track your sleep patterns to promote better rest.
Example: As you're getting ready for bed, you tap the Bedtime Spot. Your phone enters sleep mode, and you're prompted to jot down any thoughts or goals before sleep.
6. Summary Spot
Purpose: To compile and summarize data from your other Spots.
How to Use: The Summary Spot gathers information from your Routine, Marker, Medicine, and Bedtime Spots to provide you with comprehensive reports. It's a great way to analyze your habits, monitor progress, and make informed decisions to enhance your daily life.
Example: At the end of the week, you review the Summary Spot to see your workout durations, medication adherence, sleep quality, and any other tracked activities.
